Four Month Check-up

So here are the latest stats on KidZilla:

26 1/2 inches long. (loooooong, tall drink o' water)
16 lbs exactly (still gaining weight but slimming down compared to previous months)

I thought his noggin had grown a lot but it had not. Still a smallish head but perfectly in proportion!!!

The shots were more traumatic than last time but somehow all the craziness yesterday inspired the little man to sleep for FIVE HOURS IN A ROW last night. Okay, well, he woke up for about 2 minutes after a hour but was right back to sleep! If he had not exceeded the capacity of his diaper (that's what woke him up) who knows how long he would have slept.

PS: If any diaper companies want to make claims about how long they can last overnight or how much liquid they can contain, they need to test them out on my kid. He's a faucet, seriously.

Well, tomorrow is Halloween and "KidZilla" will dress up as nothing other than a. . .you guessed it. . .dinosaur! My mom helped me make--um, let me rephrase that--my mom MADE the costume, and it is super cute and super simple. The thing about Halloween costumes in Texas is that it is doggone HOT here 99% of the time so those cute ones that everyone sells are smothering.

Hopefully will post pics of the little dude tomorrow.

Wrapping this up before he wakes up!!!!

PS: So glad that I joined Facebook so I can keep in touch with more of you!!!! HUGS!

Can't wait to see a picture.

I had to make my son's costume this year too - because he chose to be something that you just can't buy.

Isn't it fabulous to watch them grow?

I remember the first time mine sleep all night (okay, so it was really only about 6 hours...but that's a big thing in a new parents life). I was the one who kept waking up...worried that he'd stopped breathing!!! I was such a ninny!
